    I like it a bunch.

    However,you can outshoot it and no you don't have to pull 17+ to do it.If you rip right off the bat,you will chop like the 7 or 8 ball.I've done it on every evo I tried (6or7).Once you get going it keeps up pretty good.

    As far as breakage,there were some brittle necks but I think they are past that.FYI,I cut the neck off of one and crushed it in a vise and it did not crack,it only crushed.

    pros - cost
    weight
    cheap parts
    easy to clean
    durable (for me)

    Cons - a little large
    eats batterys
    not as fast as a halo

            Thanks for all the feedback guys, we're not putting out enough paint (still all shooting mechanicals, I'm the only Mag on the team, the rest are Gen X 4's) so I'm putting out the quickest rate and only just out shooting my X-Board now.

            So it looks like the Egg is the way to go. I think there's one coming out for our captain to try out, then there'll prob be a rather bulky order for them. hehehe

              tried the egg on my E-Blade, couldn't keep up. No chops, just skipped shots. Halo B, no problems.

                Yes it does. Puts the weight toward the back of the gun. You can always shot a SS barrel to even it out.

                  i bought an evo II a few months ago. they feed very fast, dont get me wrong. but, they are pretty back-heavy and uncomfortable. for me, it was just an issue of preferance. i like halos more.
